Although "Sense and Sensibility" is Jane Austen's first novel, her writing skills are already quite proficient. Every plot in the story has been ingeniously conceived by the author.

When the final result appears, it will be completely different from the superficial phenomena, resulting in an unexpected comedy effect. If you read it over again, you will find that the factors that lead to the inevitable result have already been seen between the lines. The plot of the novel revolves around the mate selection activities of the two heroines, focusing on revealing the bad habit of using marriage as a way for women to seek economic security and improve their economic status in the British social trends at that time, and the ugly fashion of focusing on family status and ignoring women's feelings and human rights. The heroines in the novel all pursue equal communication and exchange of thoughts and feelings with men, demand equal rights in social status, and insist on independent observation, analysis, and freedom to choose men. In Britain at the time, this was almost a cry of defiance.

As Jack London's most important work, "Martin Eden" has long been considered the author's semi-autobiographical novel. The novel describes the story of Martin, a young sailor who successfully escaped poverty through writing. After becoming rich, he could not find his spiritual destination and finally committed suicide by throwing himself into the sea. Martin's situation is very similar to that of the author himself, both of whom used amazing perseverance to break through difficulties in life. This is also a manifestation of the naturalistic thought that emphasizes the survival of the fittest and Martin's Superman philosophy, which is worthy of praise and praise. Because everyone's personal progress will create huge social value during this period, and it is also the driving force for society to move forward. Otherwise, if you go to the other extreme and are not enterprising and lazy, it will most likely lead to another humble and mediocre life, which will lead to mental malaise and numbness.

"The Brothers Karamazov" is Dostoevsky's masterpiece. The story comes from a real patricide case and describes the contradictions and conflicts between two generations. The protagonist Karamazov has four sons: Dmitry, Ivan, Alyosha and the illegitimate son Smerdyakov. The old Karamazov, who has reached his twilight years, does not change his greedy and lustful nature. He not only seizes the inheritance left by his wife to the children, but also becomes jealous of a romantic woman with his eldest son Dmitri, which leads to disharmony between father and son. Dmitri hated his father and threatened to kill him. One night, he suspected that his father was having a tryst with his lover. In a rage, he beat his father seriously and fled in a hurry. That night, old Karamazov died and Dmitri was arrested. However, the real murderer was the illegitimate son Smerdyakov. In order to vent his long-standing grudges, he secretly brutally killed his seriously injured father. This confusing murder triggered a series of thrilling stories. The ending of the novel is very tragic: Dmitry is innocently imprisoned, Smerdyakov commits suicide in fear of crime, Ivan becomes insane, and Alyosha leaves for a foreign country. The novel is a faithful record of the social era. On the surface, "The Brothers Karamazov" is about a patricide case, about the entangled grievances between a father and his sons. In fact, this family tragedy is also a metaphor for the disintegration of the Tsarist autocratic society. The theme of the novel is the human spirit and the moral battle between faith, suspicion, reason and free will. Since the 10th century AD, Christianity has become the spiritual pillar of Russians, carrying many connotations such as society, morality, and humanity. However, after the serfdom reform in the 19th century, the materialistic desires and moral decay brought about by the development of capitalism increasingly fragmented Russian society. The democratic revolutionary movement against the tsarist autocratic rule was in full swing. Various social trends impacted the traditional Russian value system, and atheists began to question the existence of God. These social, political, economic, religious and philosophical trends of thought profoundly influenced Dostoevsky's thoughts and creations. Similarly, the writer's own life experience also has an important impact on novel creation. During his exile in Siberia, Dostoevsky came into contact with the prototype of the patricide case - a young man who was wrongly convicted of killing his father for financial gain. About 10 years later, the real murderer was brought to justice and the young man was acquitted. In 1878, Dostoevsky began writing "The Brothers Karamazov", and this story became the main plot of the novel. In May of the same year, Dostoevsky's three-year-old son Alyosha unfortunately died of epilepsy inherited from his family. His spirit suffered a heavy blow and his creation was temporarily suspended. Picking up the pen again, the writer incorporated the pain of losing his son into the novel and created Alyosha, who has the same name as his son, making him the embodiment of faith and virtue. At the end of the novel, Alyosha encourages the children to be friendly, kind, and honest. "We will definitely be resurrected" and our spirits will be immortal. Obviously, Alyosha placed his thoughts on the writer's thoughts on his son, as well as his deeper universal feelings. "The Brothers Karamazov", which was born in the 19th century, has a strong color of critical realism and also contains many modern elements. The epic work contains profound philosophy, various writing techniques, an omniscient narrator who is closely connected with the characters in the novel, a distinctive language style, and a meticulous psychological portrayal. All these constitute a bizarre, profound and profound world, which has influenced countless readers and many literary schools and writers in later generations. Freud praised the book as "the greatest novel in history"; Kafka believed that he had a "blood relationship" with Dostoevsky; Joyce said in no uncertain terms that Dostoevsky "had a profound influence" on him. "The Brothers Karamazov" is like an accurate miniature of human nature. This statement is true. Although he was not the pioneer of psychological narrative, he was a master who carried forward the description of psychological consciousness. Dostoevsky did not give a standard answer to the profound and difficult problems of human nature, which requires the insight and understanding of every reader. In the writer's words, there will always be rainy days and sunny days in life, but there will always be sunny days after rain.

This is a book written in the mid-19th century and based on a true story. After its publication, it became as famous and influential a novel as "Uncle Tom's Cabin."

African American literature began with slave narratives (Slave Narrative) and black folklore that became popular as early as the seventeenth century.

Innocence means "pure and sincere", as opposed to "sophisticated and smooth". Innocence may be a piece of chocolate in childhood, a secret love in adolescence, or a no-turning relationship between friends. Innocence is like a flower in life, which everyone yearns for, but is often destroyed by reality. Time can dilute many things in the past, but the innocence and beauty in my heart bloom like flowers, both near and far. Edith Wharton's classic "The Age of Innocence" tells the story of the entanglement between innocent love and ideals and social reality. The author also won the most influential award in the United States for this book: the Pulitzer Prize.

"The Scarlet Letter" is a classic work written by the famous American writer Hawthorne in 1850, and is considered by the world to be his masterpiece.

"Frankenstein" was published in 1818 and was also translated as "Frankenstein".

The giant is kind in nature, yearns for beauty, and longs for love and friendship. However, because of his ugly appearance, he is regarded as a monster, encounters obstacles in real life, and is abandoned. He tracked the monster to the North Pole, where he died of illness after being tortured. The giant finally jumped into the waves.

Thomas Paine (1737-1809) was born in England and later became an American citizen. He has become a leader in many fields. He was a political activist, a philosopher, and a revolutionary. Especially as a revolutionary, he is included in the ranks of the founding fathers of the United States. He was given the title "revolutionary" because he wrote two pamphlets at the beginning of the American Revolution. Both of these pamphlets played an immeasurable instigating role in the subsequent revolutionary trend. One of them is this book "Common Sense". The greatest effect of this pamphlet was that it spread the idea of ​​"republic", igniting people's enthusiasm for "independence" and joining the army, and their strong desire to fight against the powerful ruler of Britain. And, it's not just inspiration, it's solutions. It pointed out to the people the dangers of British autocracy and the decadence of its judicial system; it also told the people that a free country should be established. Thomas Paine knew that many people fantasized about compromise with the British rulers from the beginning. In his pamphlet, he warned the people that only "independence" was the road to freedom. Thomas Paine's writing style is also very good. He knew how to use vivid words to arouse the potential enthusiasm of the people. The language style he used in this pamphlet also became the writing style commonly used by many politicians later. It can be said that it is precisely because of "Common Sense" that the people who read it have strengthened their determination to take the road of independence. It was precisely because of Thomas Paine that there was a theoretical guarantee for the success of the American Revolution. Therefore, it would not be surprising to call Thomas Paine one of the "Fathers of America."

A person, a worm. A person carrying the burden of life, an insect carrying a heavy body. When a person carrying a heavy burden suddenly turns into an insect wearing a shell one day, will the burden in his heart be relieved? When the man who became a bug looked at the world with "bug eyes," what did he see? The novel "Metamorphosis" gives the answers to these questions, which makes people sigh after reading it. The author of "The Metamorphosis" is the Austrian novelist Franz Kafka. He is known as the "pioneer of modern literature". The first person who can be compared with Dante, Shakespeare and Goethe is Kafka.

Tens of millions of soldiers, prisoners of war, and people returned to the freedom that they both yearned for and feared from years of rigid and unified obedience. Some young people were dragged away by the war in their childhood and now "return", but must face a completely unfamiliar reality. For "old people" like Hesse, those worldviews that were once highly recognized have become ridiculous and ridiculous things of the past. Everything becomes suspicious and disturbing. In such a summer, a farewell summer, a day full of power and light, temptation and charm, filled with southern sunshine and the aroma of wine, the painter Klingsor transformed into Li Taibai, roamed, drank and debated with his friends Du Fu, Louis and the Armenian astrologer. Finally, at the end of summer, I used up all the fuel in my life to complete the final painting. The second part, "Wanderings", is a collection of prose and poetry written by Hesse.

To be tolerant, humans first need to overcome fear.
